Quarterback Draw - Jaci Burton

Today's review is a library find from the great Jaci Burton. Quarterback Draw is the 9th book in her Play by Play series and was published in February 2015.

Grant Cassidy knows how to be a football star—flash that dazzling smile, throw the winning pass, get the girl. But while the hot quarterback loves the game and the lifestyle, no woman has come close to catching his heart. Then he matches wits with a smart, gorgeous model, and Grant finds himself wanting more than a fling. Supermodel Katrina Koslova might live in a world of glitz and camera flashes, but she works hard to provide for the family that relies on her. She doesn’t have time for fun—much less a boyfriend—but Grant seems determined to be the exception to Katrina’s rule. Their explosive chemistry is undeniable, but Katrina’s afraid to let go and rely on anyone but herself. Grant intends to ease her fears and prove he’s a man of style and substance

Jaci Burton does it again!

In Quarterback Draw we meet super sexy, all around great guy Grant and the smart, beautiful Katrina while they are working together on a photo shoot. Grant bulldozes his way into Katrina’s life, but it’s done in a sweet way that makes you like him even more.

To be honest, I really liked both Grant and Katrina. They were both pretty down to Earth people for being in the positions that they were. Grant couldn’t have been a nicer guy and that’s on top of being a professional athlete and basically sex on a stick. Katrina is a very successful model who doesn’t seem to take herself too seriously because she’s been focused on taking care of her siblings to explore certain aspects of her own life.

I also liked Grant and Katrina together for the most part. The only snag for me, was that as much as Katrina’s inner dialogue was telling her to do one thing, she almost always let herself be swayed to what other’s wanted. Sometimes it was hard to tell if she was doing what she really wanted versus going along with what Grant and her siblings wanted.

Overall, this was a super sweet and sexy story. There wasn’t a whole lot of conflict, it was mainly an internal conflict for Katrina. There were a couple of times that felt a little too pat, which is only thing that kept it from being a 5 star review for me. This is definitely a fun, quick read, perfect for a day at the beach.
